Before leaving for my trip to Barbados with the Doxa Army a few weeks ago, I had a strange inkling that I might “get the call” for the Rolex Land-Dweller 36mm. At this point, I had been waiting about 9 months, as I had expressed my interest right on release day back in April 2025. […]
The Vaer DS2 Arctic: An Affordable No-Frills Quartz Diver
Today I’m taking a hands-on look at the Vaer DS2 Arctic, an affordable quartz diver with a bare bones demeanour that’s meant for actual diving use with its 150 meter water resistance, and the occasional after-dive seaside dining.

My inbox was full of Omega press releases announcing the arrival of a new Speedmaster Moonwatch ref. 310.30.42.50.01.004, and our instagram account […]

Experiencing a watch to its fullest, such as the new Nomos Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer, requires a clear mind – and enough time to parse minute details like dial layout, precision during assembly, and wearability.
